[lace] Every week an edging of insertion

2014-11-05 Thread Gon Homburg
Dear Arachnes,

In the Netherlands nowadays it is very popular to publish every week an edging
for crochet or something smal to embroider. We, a group of bobbin lace-
teachers thought it a good idea to start something similar in lace: Every week
an edging or insertion. It started today with a simple edging in Schneeberg
Lace. We will try to make it interesting for all people, not only simple
edgings but also more complicated ones. Every Wednesday around 15.00 pm a new
edging or insertion will be published on my website www.kloskant.com
http://www.kloskant.com/ or directly to the page http://bit.ly/1GpjsLJ
http://bit.ly/1GpjsLJ
If you like the idea, please join us. There is a special group made on
Facebook to show your results, comments and questions. This group is called
Kantje per week (Dutch for every week an edging or insertion in lace).
So I hope to see many of you there or read your comments on the edgings or the
idea via Arachne.

Happy lacing and have fun make your lace this week.

Dear LIn,

We will not send a weekly newsletter, but I will tell Arachne every week about
the new pattern.
Does that help you? ;-)

Happy lacing,

 i think this is a lovely idea and have checked it out and am excited.  i do
not do Facebook so wonder if there is another way to keep track of this.  any
suggestions?

 i saw the join in but don't know if you send out weekly newsletters or if
we should just check your web site each week.  thanks for any more info you
can help this old lady.

 Hugs, Lin and the Mali

 Mistakes are beautiful.  Mistakes are part of the fun.  In the end, so much
of it turns out not to matter.

Good idea! 

Simple patterns like these would be great for confident beginners who want to 
try making a pattern without any instructions.

Hello All!  A few days ago I posted about tatted/beaded jewelry featured at The 
French Needle.  When I checked the site today, I noted that ALL the bracelets  
one of the necklaces were already sold.  That speaks well for the future of 
lace.  When lace is appealing, fashionable  relevant it is a hot commodity!

Plain text on Arachne splits a long link into two lines, which won't work
without editing, so I've translated it to a Tiny URL:

[lace] Fine Art of Fiber - Chicago Botanic Garden

2014-11-05 Thread Sue Babbs
Anyone who is in the area over the next few days might like to come to the
Chicago Botanic Garden to see the Fine Art of Fiber which opens tomorrow
(Thursday) night.  Full details are at http://www.fineartoffiber.org/   The
show and boutiques are the work of members of the North Suburban NeedleArts
Guild, Illinois Quilters' Inc. and the Weavers Guild of the North Shore.
There are only a few lacemakers who are members of these groups, so you will
not see much lace in the show.

Photos of the exhibit will go up over the next few days, if you want to browse
them online.

I was astounded today to discover that my lace mask had been chosen to be on
the front cover of the book of this year’s Women's Journeys in Fiber
exhibit, which is part of the whole show.  I had no idea that they were going
to do this, so it is very exciting

 Well done, Sue! ?Very impressive and imaginative. ?I really enjoyed paging
through the book too, which can be done at the site you gave. (I was
particularly amused by the cat mask, and to discover I'm not the only crazy
person who saves her cat's shedded whiskers! (-:)
